Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Music - Marilyn Manson recorded a cover version of which Creedence Clearwater Revival song?

Answer: I Put A Spell On You

This song was revised for Manson's 1995 release "Smells Like Children".

2. Biology - In Biology, a "Hybridoma" is a what?

Answer: A cell made by fusing an antibody-producing B-Cell with a cancer cell

"The cancer cell contribute the ability to divide indefinitely, while the antibody cell contributes the ability to synthesize large amount of a single antibody." From the Collins Dictionary of Biology

3. Gambling - Australia has what percent (to the nearest 5%) of the world's Poker Machines?

Answer: 20%

This is 5 times the amount in the United States even though the population is much smaller.
"Australians gambled over $100 billion and lost about $14 billion, a lot of it - most of it, actually - from pokies going into manufacturers and publicans like this who are obscenely rich," Reverend Costello said*. *Quote from Today Tonight Nov 22nd, 2002

4. Campcraft - Knots - A sheetbend is used for what?

Answer: Joining two ropes of different thickness

If correctly made this rope won't slip. It shouldn't be used on smooth lines e.g. nylon fishing line.

5. Palmistry - In palmistry, the line which runs across the upper part of the palm directly under the mounts (base of fingers) is which line?

Answer: Line of Heart

When this line is clear and long it gives a happy life, rich in affection. But if it misses the mount of Jupiter (the forefinger), rising up between that mount and the next one, the Mount of Saturn, there is a coldness as regards love with a tormenting capacity for jealousy.

6. History- Albert Speer was an architect to which historical figure?

Answer: Adolf Hitler

Albert Speer was befriended by Hitler in 1933. In 1942 he was appointed Armaments Minister and become second only to Hitler himself as a power on the home front. But in 1945, Speer defied the Fuehrer's scorched earth policy and began to plot his assissination. Speer served 20 years in Spandau where he wrote his memoirs "Inside the Third Reich".

7. Weather from Animals - Cattle gathering together or remaining still grouped closely together is said to mean which of these?

Answer: A storm is approaching

You can tell a lot of things by watching insects, birds and animals. Ducks and geese rushing here and there and diving into the water when the weather is fine also tell that a storm is approaching.

8. Phobias - Genuphobia is the fear of what?

Answer: Knees

Phobias are extremely common. You may not even know you have one until you sit down and think about it? Are you afraid of getting old? That's Gerascophobia. Or maybe you have Trypanophobia, a fear of injections?

9. Medical Knowledge - How common is Kienbock's disease (Lunatomalacia)?

Answer: 1 in 150 000 to 200 000

Kienbock's Disease is when the Lunate (a carpal bone in the wrist) is injured in such a way that the blood supply to the bone is cut off and the bone begins to die. The chances of getting it in both wrists is 1 in 1 500 000. It is listed as a rare disease. It is a painful condition but is not life threatening. - From the DarkerBlue website.
